Dude just started to run at a leisurely pace.

I can't imagine we're going all-in on him right away...

Don't need to go all-in. Just need to bring him back.

BAD planning IMO....

85 for Armstead's too much... at much as I don't see Bucko as a SUPERSTAR, I would still rather keep the guy... we have him for another year, we could have franchise him and get TWO 1st rounder...

Although the Colts are NOT stupid to give up the 13th for Aweak ArmHurts, I'm now wondering which player do we have in mind??

My Spider sense tells me that it's the kid from S. Carolina (Kinlaw), but that still a risk since Bucko is MORE proven that this guy...

It also does not make any sense to me because we took Bucko 7th overall, and he's proved his worth, then we give him up for a 13?? at least their 13th and a 3rd.. NO??

so if you look at the draft list, I don't see anyone who's more worth than Bucko straight out.. not a single WR (Ruggs - oh please NO !!!).. Kinlaw?? Brown?? just doesn't make any sense??

one of the OTs available ??? Won't it be cheaper had we traded for the Redskins (Williams) ??

What about Bucko for Joey ??

not sure why I keep seeing 4 letters each time I think of us picking 13... TRADING the 31st overall to gain that missing 2nd and 3rd, I just see ...

M-I-M-S ???

COULD IT BE ???

I guarantee it's team friendly. That is not guaranteed money

my latest mock looked like this... but since we traded Bucko, I really am seeing MIMS !!!

THE LATEST !!

1) Cincy - Joe Burrow; QB - LSU
2) Washington - Tua Tagovailoa; QB - Alabama
3) Detroit - Chase Young; DE - Ohio State
4) NY Giants - Isaiah Simmons; LB - Clemson
5) Miami - Jeff Okudah; CB - Ohio State
6) Chargers - Justin Love; QB - Utah State
7) Carolina - Tristan Wirfs; OT - Iowa
8) Arizona - Cee Dee Lamb; WR - Oklahoma
9) Jacksonville - Jerry Jeudy; WR - Alabama
10) Cleveland - Jedrick Wills; OT - Alabama
11) NY Jets - Javon Kinlaw; DT - S. Carolina
12) Las Vegas - Derrick Brown; DT - Auburn
13) Indiana - Justin Herbert; QB - Oregon (changed to: SF - Denzel Mims; WR - Baylor
14) Tampa Bay - Mechi Becton; OT - Louisville (changed to: Justin Herbert; QB - Oregon)
15) Denver - Denzel Mims; WR - Baylor (changed to: Mechi Becton; OT - Louisville)

21 MILLION?!? GOOD GOD. No wonder we traded him. Absolutely LOVE Buckner. He's an All-Pro and a Pro Bowler, but there's no way we could afford 21 million and keep the majority of the others. WOW!!

Isn't that like JG/QB numbers? I agree, I just don't think that was feasible.

I think it was feasible. Ford would been a casualty to make it happen though. I guess they didn't want to do it.

My favorite sports team just traded my favorite player.

My bad.

By extension I automatically assumed "lock up" years. I'm still shellshocked.

Yeah, we need to see what he can do.

Having the #13 overall is pretty exciting. Wasn't really interested in the draft but now there's something to be excited about.

Ok so who is available that can help fill this void? Brockers?

Rival exec on 9ers trade "Easy deal . Keep one guy on team friendly deal, get pick 13 for a good player/great guy. Had no draft capital. Now have multiple 1st rounders. Can wheel & deal on draft day & have way more cap space to make other moves"

Tremendous. This front office just gets it.

Blair has become overrated on this board. He's not a 3 tech.
